All you need is a something to package it in. I suggest mason jars to show of the contents with its festive colors {red cranberries and green pistachios}. A jar can quickly be dressed up with a cupcake liner on top. I always have a few leftover after baking. You can even add a tag with an ingredients list to clarify for allergens. If you want to avoid nut allergies, just leave the pistachios out; it will still be a sweet treat from your home.

Whisk or shake together sugar and cinnamon. Pour cereal into a large bowl. Pour half of the butter over the cereal; toss. Pour remaining butter and stir well to coat cereal. Sprinkle with half the sugar and cinnamon mix and stir; repeat with remaining sugar mix. Toss in cranberries and pistachios; toss to combine. Store in airtight container. Makes 4 pint size mason jar gifts.
